Following my service in the Peace Corps, I created a humanitarian consulting agency called Advance Humanity.
It was dedicated to helping people change themselves and change the world.
Our Mission
We were one of the founding B Corporations in New England, alongside some great companies like King Arthur Flour, Seventh Generation and Ben & Jerry’s. B Corps are dedicated to making our business a force for good by working with people who are making the world a better place, whether nonprofit, for profit or educational institutions.
Over a decade, I provided consulting to help companies become Certified B Corporations, including the first one in Asia. I provided pro-bono services to nonprofits who were trying to make a big impact in the world. And I taught in graduate schools to empower changemakers and entrepreneurs while making a minimal environmental impact.
I donated 10% of my time to pro-bono work and in-kind donations and we are also proud to be a Certified B Corporation and member of 1% for the Planet.
Client Feedback
Working with Advance Humanity is transformational. The talent, energy, and integrity of the Advance Humanity team help reposition my business and enabled me to bring both the business and my professional career to a new level.
- Amy, Social Entrepreneur USA
Advance Humanity has made available a wide network of professionals who can help me take my projects to new heights I'd never considered possible. The opportunity to draw on that advice and support is really exciting.
- Heath, Peace Corps Volunteer in Mongolia
The personal and professional support I received from the Advance Humanity Community turned me from a graduate student into a social entrepreneur. The Fellows program is my opportunity to pay it forward, have fun, and learn!
